I'll vouch for that, there's an incident there most nights, my own daughter's boyfriend got jumped on by two yobs and fortunately when his head hit the pavement he wasn't killed. He was even seen on CCTV dropping his hands to his side to show that he wasn't going to fight, then one of the thugs punched him from behind.

Dead right, my daughter is at pompey uni and has seen loads of violent incidents over the last 18mths. When out socializing she always makes sure she is in a group and they stay together.

Firstly, when comparing the details on the crime map you have to bear in mind that it only relates to reported incidents; something the Echo omitted to print. Therefore, it is not an accurate picture of what is happening in your community. How many times have you known someone to be a victim of crime but they don’t report it (for whatever reason), or you see a crime being perpetrated, but do not contact the police?
Secondly, why is this being covered by Jon Reeve, an Education Reporter?

Why do people have to be so hateful towards residents who may live in a different city or town? Surely this is a form of abuse, which The Echo should not be encouraging? Further more, there are no details on the crime map, or in this article, that says those committing these crimes are from that area. Perhaps the crimes are being committed by Southampton residents who want to cause trouble elsewhere.

Double standards here.

Why are you now located in Southern Hampshire and not Eastleigh?
Is it because Eastleigh is a bit rough?

As for the crime in Guildhall Square in Portsmouoth and in that area generally, the majority of the thugs are not suprisingly, from the Portsmouth area. Crime in Southampton's night club area is generally commited by people who live in the Southampton area - it's not rocket science.

"Hampshire street", why not just say "portsmouth street" in your headlines? This is supposed to be a Southampton newspaper, Pompey has its own.

I welcome hearing news about other cities around Southampton in the Daily Echo..... it reminds me that the grass isn't always greener. And this is a newspaper.... it's reporting the news.... it tends to do that about the local area and it will sometime include news from just outside that local area. No doubt Portsmouth has news about Southampton in there paper.

Let's not kid ourselves here. Every town has its own problems Portsmouth is no different. I hope the Echo are not playing one against the other here ? this is a social problem that exists in our country not just Portsmouth

"Glovers Court in Preston and its surrounding area is the most crime-ridden place in England and Wales, according to new figures.

More than 150 crimes and incidents of anti-social behaviour were reported on the street or nearby in December alone, including 44 violent crimes"

Whether it's portsmouth or Southampton it makes no difference. Anti-social behavior is alive & well all over the world. The Police are ham strung by U.N. E.U. Civil Rights, Civil Liberties etc.
I suppose it helps organisations like the Biderburg federation in their push for The New world Order.
I was 10 years old back in 1944. Coming home from the cinema. At Kinston Cresent, outside the White horse pub, a big fight was giong on between American sailors & likly our sailors too. One big copper got set into them with his truncheon. By the time the U.S shore patrols arrived, the copper had six of them laid out on the pavement. When the shore patrols loaded them in their waggons they got another dose of their baseball bat type of truncheons.
Now I would like to know what happened to that type of Pompey Policeman ?

If anybody thinks that these crime figures are disturbing, they should keep in mind that these are only crimes recorded by the police. But lots of crime doesn’t get reported because of various reasons. Sadly lack of confidence in the police is one of those
.
Obviously police also has its own side of the sad story. They have frequently complained about shortage of officers and resources
.
But what is our government doing? Cutting the police budget and planning to make many highly experienced officers redundant. If that is not complete lunacy then what can we call the stupid most policies of this ConDem Coalition?

Er, because they are violent and smell of fish?

Do you really believe the good honest upstanding people of Southampton would degrade themselves by going to Portsmouth, let alone with the intent of causing trouble?

It is not possible to insult someone unless they have the intelligence to realise that they have been insulted. He only knows now as you have pointed it out, and I wouldn’t be 100% sure that of that.

I have not lived in Eastleigh for about six months now; that’s why I am now located in ‘Southern Hampshire’.

I know it’s not rocket science to work out that it is likely to be the local residents causing trouble. What I am saying is that the figures on the crime map do not take this in to account.

Along with todays other story."police descend on city pub"
It seem that alchohol has played it's part.
So heres the solution; get government scientists to safely make the illegal drug "extasy" and put it into alchohol.
Kicking out time in all of our major cities full of drunks hugging each other.
Utopia!!!!
